1st ultrasound today!

I had my 1st ultrasound today and everything went really well. I had some brown flecked CM yesterday for about 2 hours that were worrying me, but after talking to the doctor and seeing that everything is ok on the u/s, I feel much better!

My official due date is October 21st (ticker adjusted appropriately). What this likely means is that I did O 2 days later than I thought I did (FF gave me the correct CH). It could also mean that the baby implanted a little late too. My approximation put me at either 7w today or 6w5d, and the baby is measuring 6w4d - right where it should be! We saw and heard the heartbeat as well. It was pumping away at 128 bpm.

Wow, what a relief to know that everything is OK. I have my next u/s (the NT scan) sometime in early April. I had made the appt for 3/25 initially as MFM had the wrong due date for me (based on LMP) so I have to call and reschedule for about a week later as I'd only be 10 weeks on the 25th.

I don't plan on spilling the beans to extended family till after the NT scan. Work is on hold till I know more about my possible promotion. I know that legally I can't be discriminated against, but once that information is out there, there's no taking it back. So, mum's the word at work until the appropriate time comes out to share.

I'll post the survey at 7 weeks, but for now just know that I've been super nauseous in the morning and sporadically throughout the day, but the morning is definitely the worst. I caught a bad cold from G's flu last week and while I'm hanging in there it SUCKS to not be able to take the good meds. I'm really suffering!

Last but not least, our precious new addition (yolk sac on the left, baby on the right):
